Not a Happy Camper

I should have been able to say that I lost another pound, or even 2. But no, that is not the case. *sigh*  I just don't get how that happens. I ate better than the week before, exercised more than the week before, and I gained a half pound. I just don't understand it.

Its just so discouraging. Part of me would like to just give up, say "fuck it, guess I'm meant to be fat now." But someone I care about has been so encouraging and supportive, and has convinced me to keep going, try for another week. So, I will. One more week. We'll see what happens.

Total weight loss so far...............................3.5 pounds.

Starting.....again!

Gee, it was April the last time I blogged about starting my diet. And.....you guessed it. Gave up after 2 or 3 weeks. Sigh.  

So, here we go once again.  Started last week Monday. Not doing Weight Watchers this time. Its a great program, but I have to think too much about it. Get so caught up with it. This time, just using MyFitnessPal.com and counting calories. Learned some good tips on the other plan, will still follow them, but hoping this way will be less pressure.

Didn't get in as much exercise as I should have the first week, but will do more this week. Walked the treadmill yesterday. :P

First week results..........................................4 pounds! :)

Week One Progress

The first week of dieting is always tough...finding the routine, the right foods, exercise. Got a bleeding blister on my heel after walking the treadmill this week. Only did 3 days, instead of the 4-5 that I should have done. Food wise, had a few splurges, a few unwise choices, a few glasses of wine....but didn't do too badly. Next week will be better.

Pounds lost this week.........2

Dieting...day one

I had been working on losing weight, had been doing well with it.......and then got completely derailed with work and life, I suppose. Been meaning to get back to it, have maintained my account with weight watchers, but just haven't found the focus I needed to start again. And guess what, I've gained what I lost back, plus some. Sigh.
So, today, I am starting over. Have reset the counter to zero,  stepped on that dratted scale, and am focusing on it once again. Hope I won't complain on here too much, how much I hate that treadmill...whatever. But I have to do it this time. I'm too unhappy with the way I look to continue this way.

Keep me accountable, people!
